Abstract

A new three dimensional method for ice accretion on rotating cone was studied in this paper. The air-droplets two phase flow was solved by Eulerian - Lagrangian method, the residual water on rotating surface was determined by taking the effect of rotating speed into consideration. Then ice accretion on the rotating cone was performed on the base of the residual water. Icing accretion testing nfas performed in the icing wind tunnel Comparisons between computational results and experimental show that the ice profiles of both are in fairly good agreement, which confirms the validity of the methods. Simulation results under different rotating speed show that the ice thickness is thinner when the rotating speed goes higher.
